After being stuck in ****ty living conditions for almost 4 years and getting my hopes up a few times thinking I would have a place to set up shop I finally have a spot to cut without worry.
After almost 2 years in storage, I finally got a place with a spot for me to CNC again!
I got everything from ebay basically.
Also to anyone who might follow this thread, I had to move to an apartment with no garage or setup place. Hopefully that changes in the near future and I am...
I tried painters tape also, doesnt work good at all.
For all the crap the TB6560 gets, Ive had mine since day one. Its paid for itself, my machine, has never had one issue and has made me a small pile of cash. I was running it the other day and it was...
Can you post the 8" clothes pin file?
I tried contact paper on this one to see how it worked, cut my sanding down a ton. I painted the cuts with black spray paint, danish oil finish.
Still wet in the picture, flash made it shiny.

What type of shelf paper do you use? Seems like all I can find is non-adhesive.
I found some: ebay

A number plate for a house we just built. I might try and paint the cuts white.
I cut the pocket in the base with a .125" endmill and went a .25" deep for you guys who are going to cut one.

Caution: Rant Ahead
So I turned on my Dewalt DWP611 the other day to a shower of sparks, the motor brushes are done and its barely a year old. They are simple to replace but getting a set of...
Very nice.
I seen this table on reddit: New Table - Imgur
I got the legs designed. They are 23" tall and the middle shelf is made for 3/4" thick wood.

Something like these: Supported Rail Kit - ebay.
For that last sign I used a 90 vbit and .125 endmill.
I realized I haven't posted any updates on my new machine build lately either, its about 95% done. I just got my Z Axis done the other day.

Antenna how deep a pass are you trying to do and how fast? I normally only take out .125 per pass when I v-groove stuff but with softer wood like cedar I will go .1875. My machine only goes 18IPM and...
Wow that thing is going to be a beast.
Yeah those are good bits. I want their In-Groove bit set badly.
Another sign for a friend in cedar:

Anything you can afford from Vectric. I cant imagine doing CNC work without Aspire.

If you are using LinuxCNC double check your settings in StepConf with this guys. If using Mach...
